Chapter 25 Immortal

The palace of the dead is in a mess. Candlesticks and shelves fell to the ground, and silver plates and oil wax covered the floor. Fire is burning everywhere, and there are swaying ghost shadows everywhere. The corpse that was being " sublimated" fell to the ground and became fragmented, and the spices in the abdominal cavity spilled on the ground, emitting a mysterious fragrance.

Li Ou avoided the wooden frame that hit the ground, bypassed several corpses that stretched out their hands to him beg for rebirth, and followed the knight through the room where the deceased had been sleeping in the past, but now the deceased was tragically**. Fortunately, they haven't woken up yet.

"Why did Jeriti's body suddenly disappear?" Immediately, he didn't have time to ask. Now as he ran, he immediately expressed his confusion, "Does he have legs?"

"Fate! He already has legs!" The knight roared angrily, "How could I know? The priest sent someone to report to me, and I went to you immediately. I just came here, too."

The priests of the dead groaned in a low voice. Most of them were injured and curled up in the corner and licked their wounds silently like injured animals. They were silent, and the gray hood made them hide in the shadows. Although they are alive, they are willing to accompany the dead, as if they are integrated with the cold pyramid of the dead. They don't know anything and won't say anything. Leo thinks so.

He dodged the sword in the hand of a limestone statue and said to the knight, "It seems that he should have been robbed."

"Who will be interested in a corpse without internal organs?" The knight responded coldly, "Can they take it back and cook it?" Stewed into a thick meat soup? Or are you going to bake it? They will choked to death."

They won't do this, and they don't have this habit. They just want to torture secrets. The dead can also speak." Leo reminded him, "Don't forget what we met."

The knight's footsteps suddenly slowed down. I don't think they will do that." After a long silence, he said, "Sister Youying collects money to do things, only kills people without punishment." However, while he said this, his right hand grasped the hilt of the sword tightly, and the long sword reflected the candlelight and reflected the illusory light. His body instinctively stirring because of danger.

"That's the truth." Except for him, no one knows that Jerich is making a panacea... He seems to have embarked on the right path of truth. But if so, who would have done this?"

"Only gods and ghosts know!" The knight stared at the bodies with broken hands and feet at their feet, like wax statues smashed with a hazel. He cursed angrily, "I now hope that the gods still exist, and they will punish the blasphemers who defile the dead!"

Li Ou agreed with this, "I will be happy to have an angry god with justice and punishment."

As you go in, the air becomes more and more polluted. The smell of cloves and nutmeg is so strong that you want to vomit, and there are more bodies lying on the ground. Several dead people even got up from the stone** and stood straight by the wall. Is this the bad taste of blasphemers? However, Li Ou didn't want to believe such a conjecture. He became more and more uneasy.

They avoided the obstructed hands and feet of the dead and entered the stone room where the body was stored, where the priest who had received them had been waiting. His gray cloak has been torn and turned into a long tattered strip loosely on his shoulder, with terrible scratching on the pale skin under the cloak. He pressed the bleeding wound with a cloth and commanded several priests to put the other bodies back to their original place.

"Lord Knight." The deceased priest said in pain.

The knight quickly swept around, but they had seen enough of the mess in front of them, and it was just more chaotic here. What the hell happened?" The knight asked, "Who infiltrated here and hurt you?"

However, the deceased priest said, "No one came in."

The knight immediately lost his temper, "No one came in?" He roared sharply, "Will no one come in like this? Are you having a dance party with the dead, hugging and dancing with them, and kissing them?

The deceased priest, whose face was scratched with three blood stains by his nails, smiled miserably. There seemed to be a green ghost fire in his eyes, which was creepy and chilling all over. We want to talk to the dead, but this is not our director. He said gloomyly, "The priests of the dead respect the dead and pray for their afterlife, but we never thought of resurrecting the dead."

Resurrection! Leo almost exclaimed. The omnipotent elixir, the stone of the sage; the creator of the immortal... It seems that the stone room has been silent for a century. However, the call of the dead soul in the palace of the dead swept over like a stormy wave. They stretched out their hands to him, and countless dry and boneless hands grabbed his heart tightly. They couldn't help shouting in his ear and shouting crazily, "Let's come back to life, let's go out, and let us see the sun again!"

"If you can still be resurrected after death, isn't it another form of immortality?" The deceased priest lowered his head and whispered, his voice was like a clown on the street. The dead are not like the dead, and the living are not like the living.

He is not here to listen to each other's emotions! He almost rushed to grab the priest's collar and interrogated him with a short sword, "What the hell is going on? Tell me the whole story!"

The gray cloak priest looked at him with cold eyes for a long time. You will treat my words as a fabricated lie." He said, "You think I'm shurling my responsibility and spreading rumors. After all, it's incredible."

The resurrebirth of the dead is shocking enough. Is there a more fantasy story?

"Ty!" The knight gave a sharp command.

"No one touched him." The deceased priest slowly said, "At least we have seen someone touch him. He just got up from Shi** by himself. His voice was low and hoarse, like a horror story told by an old wet nurse in the middle of the night. A priest apprentice found something strange and rushed to explore, but was hissing and bitten by him - he was completely unlike a human, more like an irrational animal - and the fight attracted more people, causing damage and wounds.

"He's just a man... a corpse... You couldn't stop him?"

The priest responded coldly, "Mr. Knight, it is your duty to wave the sword at the criminal, but what if you are your relatives under your sword? What choice do you make?" The knight was speechless. We are the same, but we take care of the dead. And..."

"And what?"

"I don't know if you will still have the courage to fight against him."

The knight said dryly, "Isn't it just a body that can walk and run?"

"The living are not like the living, and the dead are not like the dead." The priest repeated again. The loss of blood from the wound seemed to make him feel cold, and he wrapped his rotten gray cloak tightly. His muscles atrophy and his joints are fragile, but he is invulnerable and his bones are like steel. His eyes were deep, and his eyes had already fallen off, but his eyes were burning with blue flames.

Li Ou shivered. Stop talking." He interrupted the other side rashly, "Your Excellency, your courage is admirable, but you'd better cure it quickly. Thank you very much."

The deceased priest nodded and put on a brand-new cloak sent by the apprentice, covering his pale, dazzling and skinny body all year round. Mr. Knight." He said, "Please send more people to guard this place. If you don't do this, we will have to break our vows, walk in the sun, and plead with the lord of the city in person.

"Why?" The knight was puzzled.

However, Leo grabbed him and said, "Let's go." He urged uneasily.

"But..."

"Stop asking, let's go!"

Li Ou walked all the way, always keeping his mouth shut and silent about the knight's questioning. It was not until he left the ground and saw the starry night sky that he took a breath. He looked back at the entrance of the dark palace, and the hell three-headed dogs on both sides grinned as if they were laughing at him. He said to the knight, "I promise that if you know the answer, you will not be willing to stay in the dead for a moment like me."

"Daw! What the hell is going on? I'm the only one who is confused!"

"I know what he became and how he was resurrected. I also know where he is going.
